This tempera painting of the Sella massif (in Ladin Sas dla Luesa, Mëisules) bathed by the evening light comes from Peter Demetz da Fëur (1913-1977), who taught in the art schools in Wolkenstein and St. Ulrich after the Second World War. The motif of the Dolomites unspoilt by human hand was often employed by this keen hiker.

In 1872, Ferdinand Demetz da Furdenen opened the first public training workshop for sculptors in St. Ulrich. The multi-storey building on the eastern edge of St. Ulrich was purchased by the local council in 1938 and the art school that had in the meantime moved out moved back in again. In 1999, a new construction was set up on the spot of the original Cademia building, which houses the art school today.
